Using the BNC Port
You can link the 1009B hub with other hubs using the BNC port on the back
panel. The BNC port accepts thin coaxial cable (10Base2). A Thin Ethernet
segment can extend up to 185 meters and connect up to 30 nodes. However, an
Ethernet trunk can contain no more than three coaxial segments if each extends
up to the maximum length (allowed for Thin Ethernet).
